Very intriguing prospect.

On paper, I had him rated as the best pg prospect in the draft.  But FG% is very low because 2/3 of his shots are 3 pt attempts.  but with ratings of A- A- in outside and ballhandling, could be a monster.  Judging by that his JPS, PSD, PRD all had room to improve in college, I'm guessing that potential may be legit.

And that A quick and A- jump are great for a point.  This kid has all the physical talent, he just needs to put togther.

Im happy with the pick.

I really need his potential to be for real, and I have been screwed in the past by the old "P" word (REF: Mark Schwartz, Michael Doleac, Nick Abdur-Rahim)
